About Great Witley CofE Primary School

Great Witley CofE Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit slightly below the Worcestershire local authority average, with 57% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a county average of 61%. That four-point gap places the school 69th out of 180 primary schools in the local authority, and in the bottom half nationally. The picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects. Reading and maths both saw 73% of pupils meet the expected standard, with average scaled scores of 107 and 104 respectively, which are solid figures. Writing was close behind at 70%. Where the school really falls short is at the higher standard: only 3% of pupils achieved greater depth across all three subjects, and just 7% did so in writing. That suggests a school that reliably gets most children to a decent baseline but struggles to push the highest achievers further.
